We study how donor and recipient characteristics affect the
incidence and timing of PAC contributions to incumbent members of the
U.S. House of Representatives during the 1993-94 election cycle. We
contribute to the campaign finance literature by modeling the timing
of contributions, which is important because timing affects the
perception of political actors about the competitiveness of elections
and the loci of power among members of Congress, interest groups, and
between members of Congress and interest groups. We estimate split
population event history models to compare and contrast determinants
of whether and when contributions are made across various types and
sizes of PACs.
